What have you observed from your time seeing him performing his role away from the bench?

Clearly the defence is at its worst in living memory. Therefore, Bould’s contribution ( whatever it was ) can hardly be viewed as a success.
Emery’s also come to the conclusion that it’s time for change and Freddie is the name on the sheet.
Get rid. imo

That seems to have been the case. Monty will no doubt be along in a mo to ask you if you’ve ever actually witnessed him collecting cones

I remember when Bouldy first came in and we swiftly achieved two clean sheets in a row. Awimb's Herbert Chapman decided this was enough to pronounce Bouldy's role in our new found defensive solidity as "the elephant in the room".

Lee Dixon let slip something a while back...he said he told Bouldie to have a word with Bellend about tracking back once in a while. Bouldie told him he says that to him every game but he doesn’t listen.

Players really needed a generous kick up the backside imo

The defence is going to improve but it might be more to do with players coming and going rather than sacking Bouldie.

But then I suppose this depends on his training brief. If it’s simply to advise/suggest without implementation, it sounds like Bouldy is your man and why change things ?
If Emery keeps with the same regime and we keep shipping goals, the Directors, at some point, will hold him to account.
Management d’ye see ? Someone has to fall on their swords for the defence fiasco and at this juncture, Dick’s going to cover his bases. Ta ta Bouldy..
